I think a tuxedo with a bow tie, top hat and monocle should do fine. But seriously, coat and tie. Wear what you'd bring to a face-to-face.

And as for the turboprop question, 2/3 of my flight time was on the C-130. So yeah, they've hired a few of us.

I'm another with mostly all prior military turboprop that got hired. So yes...

I wonder how many have had their doorbell rang during the interview.

I intentionally did mine at 2AM so that there would be zero chance of doorbells/phone calls/alert pets and kids. It was almost too quiet.

It's too bad the Airways way didn't continue.

I thought the same thing, yet here I am. Ya never know. Just apply and see what happens.

By the time that I got everything set up to start the interview it was after 9 PM so thankfully that wasn't a problem. I wonder if anyone had an angry ex girlfriend stop by during the middle of it... Now that would be entertaining!

I used my living room and got all of the pets out of the picture.... The interview was straight forward and not very complicated. Hopefully I get the next email in a few days!

my average answer was between a minute to a minute and a half.
